Short description
Chiavi di identificazione | Morfologia | Morfometria
Raggi anali molli: 54 - 61. Caudal peduncle absent. Dorsal- and anal-fin rays with a broad, membranous ridge extending from base of each ray and gradually narrowing to ray tip. Ocular side with prominent dark blotches in 3 rows; the middle one with just 2 blotches, the largest and darkest (Ref. 48239).
Body shape (shape guide): short and / or deep.
Benthic on sand, rubble or reef (Ref. 58302). Often buried in sand in caves. Feeds on small crustaceans (shrimps, crabs, isopods, ostracods, and amphipods, caprellids (Ref. 13070).
